Germanium is a naturally occurring element in the Earth's crust, but it is rare. It is mainly found in combination with other elements such as sulfur and zinc. Germanium does not have a significant direct impact on the Earth's environment or ecosystems.
Germanium is not typically found in its pure form in nature. It is most commonly found in combination with other minerals, such as zinc ores, coal, and some copper ores. Germany has historically been a major source of germanium.
The chemical compound GeO2 is called germanium dioxide.
The characteristic of the Earth that causes the Coriolis effect is the rotation of the Earth on its axis. As the Earth rotates, objects in motion are deflected to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern hemisphere due to the Coriolis effect.
The Coriolis effect causes moving objects on Earth, such as air currents and ocean currents, to appear to curve due to the rotation of the Earth.
Germanium can be found in small quantities in coal deposits worldwide. It is also found in some zinc ores, such as sphalerite. Germany, Russia, and the United States are some of the main producers of germanium.

Germanium is a naturally occurring element, but does not occur in pure form on the Earth (only in compounds).
It accounts for 1.3 parts per million in the earth's crust.
No, germanium is not a rare earth element. It is a metalloid in group 14 of the periodic table, along with carbon, silicon, and tin. Rare earth elements are a group of elements found in the lanthanide series of the periodic table.
As a heavy metal it is considered to have some negative impact in aquatic ecosystems.
Germanium has higher electron and hole mobilities compared to silicon, making it more sensitive to small magnetic fields in Hall effect experiments. Additionally, germanium has a lower bandgap energy, which allows for the Hall voltage to be easily measured at room temperature. Silicon, on the other hand, has a higher bandgap energy leading to less sensitivity in detecting small magnetic fields.

i think to make earth feel better visit my blog for more at http://www.jewelryinworld.blogspot.com OA79 represents Germanium diode. O = germanium, A= rectifier diode.
Germanium does no "do" anything.
Germanium is not manufactured; its ore is mined then refined into germanium.
